Axially Symmetric, Asymptotically Flat Vacuum Metric with a Naked Singularity and Closed Timelike Curves

Abstract: We present an axially symmetric, asymptotically flat empty space solution of the Einstein field equations containing a naked singularity. The spacetime is regular everywhere except on the symmetry axis where it possess a true curvature singularity. The spacetime is of type D in the Petrov classification scheme and is locally isometric to the metrics of case IV in the Kinnersley classification of type D vacuum metrics. Additionally, the spacetime also shows the evolution of closed timelike curves (CTCs) from an… Show more

“…Nakao and Morisawa [14,15] introduced a an isotropic scheme and investigated cylindrical collapse for dust and perfect fluid, respectively. Cylindrical symmetric gravitational collapse of counter rotating dust shells can be found in the [16,17], axially symmetric vacuum solution [18], and cylindrical symmetric collapse in anisotropic in [7]. An axially symmetric null dust gravitational collapse has been discussed in [19].…”
